Destroying flooring mills by fire lias been so Rcuiicnt and heavy of late that »t will probably so increase tlie insur ance rate {hat that industry will hava to carry its own insurance. Fanaticism has not characterized the Southern temperance people as the Northern; and Northern papers am free to admit that the Southm u Htatpa haye dealt with 4 more wisely than the Northern. people of our metmpolotain cities are very jealous in having their pur suits ol pleasure curtailed Put when their mjipls become terrorized bv epi demics, intense boat die, they are will ing to give tips devil a tee simple ti tle to tliptn all. New York has over 100 negro con victs to every tll.OOOof that population with in her State limits; Masacliusetts JiasGU to every 10,000; South Carolina has about 9 to every I({,UUO; Georgia has *2l to every 10,0()0. In the white population the contrast is much great er. Where is reformation mostly needed? The house in Gun- Grant was born is in good demand. Phila delphia wapiti it, Cincinnati wants it, Clcriuount comity wants }t and not any one knows how many other plac es or corporations want it.

( tiidliiiioomi’s Korjuj Tronhle, The Chattanooga Daily Times and Cuipii.itpiAl, have for the past few days been having quite a lively little skirmish in regard to Die publication of (lev. Mr, Rinkin’s, of that city, sermon in which lie openly and boldly attacks the great social evil of the city. Tlio Times refused to publish the sermon, apparently based on the grounds that it was too highly sensa tional and indecent; while Commercial nut only published it, but has thrown its editorials in a line according with its sentiment. It sounds rather queer for tho i’imc.s to beaoine so delicate all at once, when, heretofore, there is not a paper south of the Ohio liver that could collect and publish higher and more sensational and filthy matter than it. In politics tbp Ccmmeicial is one of those honest, snappy', knmv when-to strike Republican papers; the Times well, it has always been a matter o' no little task with the Dem ocrats of Chattanooga to politically locate it. At any rato the Commer cial is about getting the better of tho present fight. GEN. GRANT.

No section of this yast government o' oms ea'eitaina truer patiiolic venera tion for tiiat grand acheivement and noble work of the founders of our gov ernment than this section. Ib.it in the hearts of true Southern patriots is left a woniid and scar that will find a lies'ing only in eterigly. From generation to generation the truth will be handed down, and at each decade it will become more effulgent till er i'or and falsehood will be assigned to its proper fjle in the history of our na tion.

I liave it from good authority that Sam Jones gave litlor auco to the expression while pleaching in the city of Nashville. So yon see that Mr R nvden would liavo taken great littered in Sail) to follow him t,j Nashville. Mr. Rowden admits tlnf Sam iltteiance the exjues.-i .n hut lid not intend it as wo sou it.

From >vhat wp can find out about tho early life of Sam Jones hp, was a profane man, as voting generly do of that disposition “Will «wen pa little” And yet he says a man •w ho will swear will steal. I wonder ii Mi Juiier ever stole anything. In accordance with wlia{ iie says, he is a refomvq rogue, a minister and servant of God. Mr Jones is Judging those who sweat by his own disposition. But that is nop true, there are thousands of good honest citizens wlm are far Su perior to Sam Jones, that ►wear 1 want it understood that 1 flo not en dorse sweaving or the tiso of profane language in any respect .
